Sun,Shoes and Sombreros
Chapter 13
Alice's POV
We leave them for 5 minutes and what happens??
One's stuck to the floor, one's trapped on a make-shift raft and one's falling out a window but we hasn't even managed that.
So now i'm trying to free Jasper while Bella slowly re-attaches Edward to the dock and Rose watches (not helps-yet) Emmett struggling to get free.
After i got Jasper free i cleaned the floor so no-one else could get stuck, then after Jasper recovery we walked down to the garden and watched with Edward and Bella as Emmett tried to get himself of the window.
He slowly tried to move the screw so he could climb back into the window but it seemed gravity was against him.
As he tried to move his t-shirt slowly ripped and he fell to the ground...well it wasn't the ground it was the now we had to fix the decking, i wish we could hide it but a 10 by 10 crater can't be hidden by a plant pot.
So, after warning Emmett never to climb out or near a window, never to take wood off the dock without warning and never to leave syrup on the floor we went back to prepping the island.
Jasper's POV
By 10 am we had finished the setting and the girls were adding the final touches to the costumes.
While they did the costumes we tested the sound equipment and the worked perfectly so we went back to the house and waited for the girls.
After a few minutes we were joined by the girls and we began filming.
Since it was already light we had to wait til later to do the 'postbox' scene so we skipped ahead to 'Honey,Honey'.
Bella's POV
We had decided any things or jokes we wanted to include we would just throw in. Earlier we had decided that for the first scene i would be Lisa, Alice would be Sophie and Rose would be Ali.
So as we began the chant under the watchfull eyes of our husbands we thought of the perfect solution to my problem.
'We're Sophie, Ali, Lisa we're the greatest bunch of friends......
(Rose) 'I'm tough....
(Me) 'I'm tall...'
''Your not''- at this point Emmett came behind me and lifted me onto his shoulders. After sticking my tongue out at Rose i said ''Yes, i am''
''I'm still tiny...'' whispered Alice while we all laughed.
After recovering from our laughing fit, i dropped to the ground while Emmett sidled off the screen. As we got ready for the first song Alice readjusted her blonde wig and grabbed the newly personalized diary.
'Honey, honey how he thrills me a-ha honey, honey'
As we made it up to the top of the hill Rose ran round the corner and came back donned in dungarees and trainers.
We had just decided to pretend Ali had disappeared instead of editing Rose in later.
So, as we said about 'Donna having fun' with probably more truth concerning Rose than Donna we finished the last scene with Alice's perfect version of-
''I've heard about him before, i wanted to know some more and now i'm about to see what you mean to me...''
Edward's POV
After Alice concluded the first scene we paused to go over the film.
As we watched it seemed unreal that after only half an hour we had the first scene done. The girl's did killer performances and it was amazing to see the chant sequence again.
As we got ready for the next scene everyone split up to get ready.
It was only 11 so we thought we would take a half hour out to prepare the island and rehearse the scene and figure out how we would do them the scenes.
Since this was a big scene, we needed to repair the boat, make sure the set for the rooms and the outdoor set was ready and we had to get everyone ready for the filming.
So Rose had begun the repairs on the boat with Emmett's help, Alice was checking over the sets and costumes with Jasper while me and Bella planned how to work the scene.
After the half hour we all returned to the living room accompanied by a large cat-fish we needed for the next scene. Emmett seemed captivated by the fish and just sat there staring at it.
After overviewing the layout we began filming again.
So, as Alice and Bella were filmed by Jasper on the boat (while being asked for autographs and recieving fish from the newly Greek version of Emmett) i filmed Rose running (we don't have a car) to the pier.
This has got to be the most weird thing the girls have done yet-forget the airport and airoplane fiascos this is the arrival of Tanya and Rosie!
Emmett's POV
We watched as the girls took their positions. As soon as Rose begun her lines it took every last ounce of self-control we were supposed to have to stifle our laughter and to keep the cameras steady.
OH!!! ''Edward we forgot to have the people on the pier who think their nutters-it's important and funny''
''Ok take this i'll do it''
Edward ran in front of the camera and with possibly the best look ever of confusion pointed to the girls' and did the whole finger curling pointing to the nutters thing.
He quickly ran back round to retake the camera and we watched as the girls ran down the pier screaming like lunatics and then collapsed on the floor in a pile as they hit each other.
After the laughing fit ceased they well i would say got into the car but Esme wants the island to be free of any unnatural disturbances (except us of course!!!!!!) so no cars. So, Rose gave Bella a piggy-back since she was Tanya and Alice followed on foot.
It was amazing to see Alice howl like a wolf she must be spending a lot of time with Jacob.
When we reached the hill where Sky would meet the 'backup girls' so i sidled of and went to be Sky, personally i don't like him (after seeing Dominic Cooper in The Duchess i lost all respect for him) but i did it.
It wasn't hard all i had to do was inquire to Alice and Bella what their names were then make a few jokes grab their bags, ok now that was the problem we hadn't actually remembered the bags we were too busy figuring out how to fix the boat. So Edward popped round the edge of the camera and passed me the camera and sound equipment bags.
After hearing several jokes about Bella having mis-shapen luggage we stopped filming and sat on the pier and watched ABBA:The Movie on my laptop.
Rosalie's POV
''Who wants to go for a swim??''
It seemed convenient we were all wearing our swim suits anyway and it would be a good chance to play volleyball and explore the reefs around the island.
The girls were first in the water, the boys seemed more intent on watching the movie so we decided we would play volleyball by ourselves and hopefully convince them to join in.
As soon as Alice took the ball off Jasper the boys seeing what was happening changed faster than i had ever seem anyone change.
Soon we had divided into teams-
Me, Bella and Jasper V Alice, Edward and Emmett.
Each time we hit the ball we tried to either splash the other person or to defeat our spouses.
I didn't need any encouraging, everytime i got the chance to hit the ball i made sure to throw it as hard as possible at his head or far away so he ended up jumping and causing a huge wave to hit Edward-stopping him from retrieving the ball.
It didn't help him when he thought he would get me back by hitting the ball very forcefully at the water in front of me so a wave would knock me back.
After i resurfaced i immediatley forgot the game and tackled Emmett into the water.
I think the other couples were just waiting for someone else to do it first because as soon as Emmett regained the advantage and pushed me below the surface, the boys grabbed Alice and Bella and dropped them into the water.
Soon we decided to finish our play fight and explore the reefs.
If i had known then what Emmett would do i would have shut my mouth and let them watch the film.
How he found a tank i'll never know.......
